<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My idp certificates are coming up for a renewal in the next month and I have a few questions regarding how to go about this if anyone can point me in the right direction? I also have a question regarding updating components on the IDP server.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1 - My installation is a Windows based one, but the installed certificates are Apache based. Do I just use a linux server somewhere to generate the new certificate request file and then export the corresponding private key from that once
the request has been completed, or is there a way to generate apache cert requests from within the Windows install?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2- I publish the idp server through an ISA server, which requires IIS style certificates. Can I just use IIS certificates with the same friendly name on the ISA server and point them to port 443 on the idp server?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">3 – With the recent concern regarding Java I’m concerned about leaving my Java install unpatched, however whenever I run the upgrade on the java software my IDP server won’t start (from memory it’s the tomcat service that won’t start).
I’ve looked inside the various Tomcat configs but I can’t see anything that seems to tie it to an exact version number, do I need to do something funky inside to Tomcat to get it to recognise the updated java install? The paths declared in the Environment
variables remains the same.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cheers in advance for any pointers.</p>
